Winter Academy on Artificial Intelligence and International Law
The Winter Academy on Artificial Intelligence and International Law will offer foundational knowledge on key issues at the interface of international law and artificial intelligence, and provide a platform for critical debate and engagement on emerging questions. The programme will be structured along five themes: Understanding AI, AI for good, AI and armed conflict, AI and responsibility, and AI governance.
